An Arrow crossover and Zoom unmasked (?!) in latest trailer for The Flash

It’s not often a middle-of-the-season trailer can pack such a narrative punch, but The CW’s Flash isn’t just any show.

The latest trailer looks to incorporate footage from the next 2-3 episodes, namely “Escape From Earth-2” and “King Shark.” We get to see more of Barry’s adventure on Earth-2, as he is tasked with escaping Zoom’s secret lair (you’re welcome, Cisco) and eventually making it back to his home dimension. Of note: It seems the Earth-2 experience leaves an emotional scar on Barry, and we also get a peek of Zoom pulling his mask down (though no peek at who is underneath). But! It seems we might get an answer to that question sooner rather than later.

The trailer also focuses on the upcoming Arrow crossover that will bring Diggle and Lyla to Star City, as they’ll apparently help Barry take on King Shark. Diggle has often provided the emotional center of support for Oliver, and it seems he’ll also be giving Barry some much-needed encouragement after the Earth-2 debacle. Another note: Harry apparently returns to Earth-1 with the gang for some reason, because we get a peek at him hiding out with the gang in Reverse-Flash’s secret Gideon room.
